Protect Children

Protect ChildrenProtect Children

Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision

of children is necessary when the washer is used near children. As children grow,
teach them the proper, safe use of all appliances.

Destroy the carton, plastic bag and other packing materials after the

washer is unpacked. Children might use them for play. Cartons covered with rugs,
bedspreads or plastic sheets can become airtight chambers.

Keep laundry products out of children's reach. To prevent personal

injury, observe all warnings on product labels.

Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the

washer door to prevent accidental entrapment.

Failure to comply with these warnings could result in serious personal injuries.
